Matt_Zoot Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 I ride a 24" Onza Zoot and want some better forks, I've been looking at the '07 Echo Urbans and have been offered some for a decent price It suddenly dawned on me last night that they are probably going to be too long to run my front maggy, so then I started thinking about getting a front disc, either a hope mini or a BB7. Would this solution work or would the mountings be in the wrong place as its a 24" wheel? It got to the stage last night where I was thinking way too much about stuff and ended up confusing myself. All I want to know is...Would the Urbans fit on my Zoot?Would I be able to run a front maggie?Would I damage anything by using a 26" fork?Would a disc fit properly with this setup?What decent 'Urban' style forks are around for 24"?CheersMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh_b Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 As far as i kow you will not be able to run a 24" wheel with 26" magura mount forks with a front magura. Running a disk should be fine though, the hub etc will all be in the same place and the forks should be fine with this set up. Aslong as the zoot has a 1 1/8 steerer tube you should be able to run any forks thet have a 1 1/8 steerer tube. As for urban style forks have you looked at DMR forks? Maybe a little heavy but worth a look? -Hugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Would the Urbans fit on my Zoot? yesWould I be able to run a front maggie? noWould I damage anything by using a 26" fork? no, zoot forks are stock forks with lowered mountsWould a disc fit properly with this setup? oh yesWhat decent 'Urban' style forks are around for 24"? modified pashleys rock, or any of the stock forks with a disc mount, i run pures and they are a tad longer than normal, feels quite good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
